The space between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is filled with a 'dielectric' whose 'dielectric constant' varies with distance as per the relation:

$K(x) = K_0 + \lambda x$ ( $\lambda  =$ constant)

The capacitance $C,$ of the capacitor, would be related to its vacuum capacitance $C_0$ for the relation

  • A$C\, = \,\frac{{\lambda d}}{{\ln \,(1 + {K_0}\lambda d)}}{C_0}$
  • B$C\, = \,\frac{{\lambda }}{{d.\ln \,(1 + {K_0}\lambda d)}}{C_0}$
  • C$C\, = \,\frac{{\lambda d}}{{\ln \,(1 + \lambda d/{K_0})}}{C_0}$
  • D$C\, = \,\frac{\lambda }{{d.\ln \,(1 + {K_0}/\lambda d)}}{C_0}$
